SSCs be preferable to ACs or SACs due to the inherent uncertainty of human

performance.

Categorize administrative features in terms of the programmatic elements

covered in later chapters of the DSA. With the exception of safety-significant

SSCs, TSR designation is made in the form of administrative controls for

overall programs only for worker safety. Typical safety-management

programs include criticality protection, radiation protection, hazardous material

protection, institutional safety provisions, procedures and training, operational

safety, and emergency preparedness. Specifically note programs that will be

provided TSR coverage as administrative controls in Chapter 5, "Derivation of

Technical Safety Requirements. "

Figure 3-3 shows how worker safety is addressed in the hazard analysis

process. This subsection provides documented evidence that worker safety

features are an integral part of facility design and operation, that basic facility

operations for worker safety are adequate, and that workers are protected by a

number of means including programs described elsewhere in the DSA (e.g.,

Chapters 7 and 8). It is emphasized again that this subsection is written at a

summary level. Identify the broad purpose of features, but not the details of

their design.

3.3.2.3.4

Environmental Protection

This subsection summarizes the design and operational features that reduce the

potential for large material releases to the environment. Document pathways

for uncontrolled release of large amounts of hazardous materials to the

environment identified in the hazard evaluation. Estimate potential

consequences and preventive and mitigative features associated with specific

pathways. If specific pathways have previously been addressed (e.g., Section

3.3.2.3.2, "Defense in Depth"), a reference is sufficient.
